The Bible Christian chapel was built when Cornish tin-miners relocated to the iron ore workings in West Cumbria. It replicates the Bible Christian Chapels in Devon & Cornwall. The Bible Christians amalgamated into the Methodist Movement in the early 20th century. This chapel was 'revived' and used until the mid-1990s. It was sold to a speculative 'developer' around 1999 and has lain desolate and untouched.

gollark: Or it got stuck in a local maximum, which happens a lot.
gollark: For biology, it's just really complicated, because of being run through ruthless optimization processes for billions of years.
